The rental yields on apartments in Johannesburg are impressive and range from 10.69% to 13.31%. Rental yields of houses are less, but still excellent. A three bedroom house, which costs US$587,790, will rent out for $3,546 a month, returning a yield of 7.24%. Oddly, the bigger the house, the lower the yield.

Johannesburg being the financial and commerce hub of South Africa and in fact of Southern Africa, the market for rentals is always thriving. Services are increasingly outsourced and a lot of business these days is about short and medium term contracts.
